Finally, ABS-CBN released order to extend Willie Revillame’s leave up to September 20 this year as the result of the talks between the ABS-CBN and MTRCB regarding the latter’s complaint against the popular host.

Here’s the official statement of the ABS-CBN:

“In the interest of self-regulation, ABS-CBN has availed of the conciliation process under Section 6, Rule 7, of the MTRCB Rules of Procedures, regarding the incidents involving Mr. Willie Revillame in the program Wowowee. After having considered the facts, issues and terms of self-regulation to be imposed in the pertinent cases, the MTRCB has approved the same.

“Whereof, the ABS-CBN shall undertake to perform the following:

“1. Extend Mr. Revillame’s leave until 20 September 2009; and,
“2. Remove the present dance segment of Luningning and Saicy.

“Further, ABS-CBN reiterates that it is fully aware of its legal and moral responsibilities as a broadcaster and shall undertake to continue to uphold the values and customs of the Filipino viewing public.”

My thoughts

I was thinking recently if Willie Revillame is still needed on his popular noontime show, Wowowee. And I found out that according to research, Wowowee remains the number 1 TV show since his indefinite leave up to this time of writing this post.

In other words, Pokwang and other co-hosts of the show are now capable of maintaining the popularity of the show. So, I guess even if Willie Revillame will decide to leave the ABS-CBN after the recent decision made by the company, Wowowee will remain good noontime entertainment.

So, what will Willie Revillame do now?

Well. He’s now rich. And I think, he can still to earn millions from his business aside from hosting the Wowowee.
